Watson, the computer designed by IBM engineers, will compete against two of Jeopardy’s most successful past winners, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter, on the shows that will air in 2011, between February 14th and the 16th.

I’m look forward to see how this geekfest plays out. If Watson ends up trouncing Jennings and Rutter, I wonder if they will also accuse IBM of trickery and request a rematch as Kasparov did? And if they do, will IBM comply this time, or deny them the option, and disassemble the machine, as they did Deep Blue?
